One of the greater tragedies of Super Bowl LI is that it robbed Grady Jarrett of rightful recognition for what was an incredible performance.

The Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle played the game of his life in Houston that evening, tallying a career high in sacks on New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

Brady of course led his team to a 25-point comeback win and was ultimately named the game’s MVP. Had Atlanta somehow managed to hold onto their lead (perhaps by running the ball more to drain the clock), Jarrett likely would have been the recipient of that award.

Despite the disappointing way the game ended, Jarrett has no reason to feel ashamed about his performance. So, what comes next?
